« on: August 24, 2010, 02:54:10 PM »
When going out in the field, how many arrows do you take and how many are left back at camp?

I fill my quiver with 6 arrows but I am not too sure why to tell ya the truth. Part of it is that I practice with my quiver full so I try to keep it consistent as possible. I usually have one that has a game getter head on it too so that I can shoot a grouse if one of them *censored*s doesn't scare the crap out of me before I spot it.  :chuckle:

This is the same set up I run as well.  I would prefer to make the first shot count so you don't make a lot of work for yourself or loose an animal.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
